Which steering guard?
Jake:
The ally ones are lighter for sure
The ally one i had took the abuse with ease :lol:
All steering guards will bend if you hit them hard enough :shock:
Its pretty certain that your nose will drop with a heavy winch if you dont have a high enough rating on your springs
When you do deciede to go for a winch, uprate your front springs to suit
Or, go for spacer blocks that sit under the front springs to bring back the lift. (although your springs will be still be carrying the extra weight so it *might* affect the ride)
:D
POTASH:
or you could make your own :wink:
Disco_Stu:
Do i need to be a welder by trade?
If not, tell me more :)
POTASH:
you need someone to weld the the shape if that makes sense :roll: then you find something thick for a guard, my photo of mines in my gallery
extreme90:
if it was me i wouldnt bother :wink:
i found a steering guard to be more of a hinderence than help so i binned it
take a look at most winch challenge tucks now, you'll see that they arnt running them for the same reasonse i aint.....damn cheese grater and a brilliant natural jack :shock: o and not to mention a farmers best freind ( plough)
spend the money on something more worth while....like h/d steering arms, cos sooner or later your going to bend your track rod and wish you spend the money on the arms rather than a steering guard which wont protect the most vunreble bit of all :roll:
ive got solid steel arms, run them for a year now...no problems and i dont worry one bit about not having a steering guard
thats my opinion anyhow and is how i see it :twisted:
